The logistics company faced challenges related to shipment tracking, inventory management, and supply chain visibility across global operations.
UpSky Tech (UST) deployed a real-time tracking system using AWS IoT services for tracking and managing IoT devices, and AWS IoT Events for real-time detection and response to supply chain events. Amazon EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) facilitated containerized application deployment for the tracking system, while Amazon Aurora provided a scalable and high-performance database for managing shipment data. DevOps tools like AWS Code Pipeline and AWS CloudFormation supported automated deployment and infrastructure management for the real-time tracking system.
The implementation of the real-time tracking system enhanced supply chain visibility, optimized route planning, and automated inventory management. This resulted in reduced transit times by 19%, improved operational efficiency, and enhanced customer satisfaction for the logistics company.
